About the water
Lewisville Lake is operated by the Corps of Engineers, Fort Worth District, mainly for water supply and flood control. Because it is wide and relatively deep (averaging about 25 feet), the Corps notes it is well suited to large cruisers, sailboats, and high-performance ski boats.
Texas wake-sport rules
Texas has no statewide wakesurfing-specific law. General rules (TPWD, Parks & Wildlife Code ch. 31 / 31 TAC) require headway/no-wake speed within 50 feet of other vessels, persons, platforms or shore for PWC, prohibit hazardous wakes, and hold operators liable for wake damage. No wake-surf-specific distance/depth/acreage thresholds exist statewide.
This rating classifies measured depth and surface area against published wake-sport guidance. It is not a safety clearance and not permission to ride: local no-wake zones, hours, and horsepower limits are set by the county, lake district, or land manager, and they take precedence.
